A Canadian bakery made the ‘gayest cake ever’—and it’s precious

Chris Farias, a creative director in Hamilton, Ontario, recently ordered a cake for his fiancé, Jared Lenover, asking for the “gayest” cake that Cake and Loaf Bakery could make, BuzzFeed News reported Friday.

Quinn Pallister took on the task of decorating the gayest cake. She’s the child of two moms, so the task had a special meaning to her.

“Seeing my moms being part of the LGBT community, it’s just really important to me that everybody feels included,” Pallister said. “I never got to make [my moms] a wedding cake, so this was like making something for everybody that’s part of the community.”

She created a rainbow masterpiece, topped with a gold unicorn horn and filled with rainbow sprinkles. The base of the cake is encircled with words like “fierce,” “yass” and sexual identities.

Farias was emotional when he saw it.

“She showed it to me and I just started crying and gave her a huge hug,” he said. “It was everything—it was just right.”

He posted photos of the cake on Facebook, getting thousands of likes and shares.
